It’s always a good idea for the new guy to make the rounds, and newly installed Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella isn’t wasting any time.
Nadella has already met with Microsoft’s leadership team and addressed employees, along with exiting CEO Steve Ballmer, founder Bill Gates and new chairman John Thompson. He’s holding a webcast for customers (and press, investors and the general public) at noon PT, and Re/code will have live coverage once it gets under way.
Of course, it’s not all about meet-and-greets. Nadella has plenty of urgent tasks, including getting Microsoft’s mobile house in order.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?
Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple of big issues with relying on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on:
First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.
Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. And we can’t do that if we have a paywall.
So even though advertising is still our biggest source of revenue, we also seek grants and reader support. (And no matter how our work is funded, we have strict guidelines on editorial independence.)
If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today? Any amount helps.
